Christmas is fast approaching… 12 days until Christmas... Have you bought and wrapped all your presents yet? If not, this might be a good tip where you can buy or holiday treats for your family and friends. Gift giving is one of the most labor-intensive holiday chores, draining your time, energy and bank account. The principle is simple in theory: make a list of people you love and what you'll get them.

The practice, though, is hard when put to the test in real life, complicated by sales, relationships and consumers' capricious tastes. Challenges can made of Christmas rush shopping on where and when to buy some gifts for celebrating the Yuletide season. It might be regretful if you don’t have already a time of buying some stuffs and almost all departments stores have full of people. What to do if you are in the rush?
All you need to do is find a reputable online shop that can ease your shopping rush this Christmas. It was very convenient and safe if you find great deals on an online shopping store.

Inspiration comes
from everything, in every form. Sometimes, it can come from across the
globe—from the streets of New York to Tokyo and Paris. And according to Philips
Consumer Lifestyle, the music-loving fashion junkie can get a taste of the
world’s most loved urban cultures with the Philips CitiScape headphones
collection.

A
taste of the concrete jungle

If
you’re inspired by urban adventures that only the concrete jungle of New York
City can give, Philips promises that the Philips
CitiScape Downtown headphones will allow you to experience NYC wherever you
may be. “The Downtown gives just the right touch of the smart-casual street
style that New York is known for,” says Franco Flameno, Business Development
Manager for Lifestyle Entertainment, Philips Consumer Lifestyle Philippines.

The Downtown comes in
a sleek and sophisticated design that you can easily match with free-flowing
dresses, jeans or even boots, making these headphones truly quite fashionable.
And best of all, says Flameno, the audio quality of the Downtown is what makes
it a must-have.

“Finely tuned 40mm
drivers deliver clear, natural and balanced sound. That kind of audio quality
for its market is hard to top,” he explains. A built-in microphone allows you
to switch from your music to your phone calls easily, while its MusicSeal
feature allows you to immerse yourself in the city’s sights while keeping the
noise away from your music.

Similarly,
the Philips CitiScape Uptown “packs
a mean punch with high precision sound,” says Flameno, with memory foam
cushions that assure a comfortable fit and long-time listening every time. The
Uptown is also equipped with MusicSeal that lets you keep every beat of your
music to yourself. Furthermore, the Uptown, inspired by classy and savvy
urbanites, sports an anti-tangle cable and air-quilted headband.

Embrace
the City of Love

From America to
Europe, the CitiScape collection channels romance and chic Parisian fashion
with the Philips CitiScape St. Germain.
This set of headphones sets itself apart from the collection nicely as they are
in-ear headphones inspired by Paris’ boho charm.

Flameno describes the
St. Germain as “funky and elegant,” and explains that it is designed to give
total comfort while producing soft and natural sound. The St. Germain may not
come in full headband headphones form, but it still does a pretty good job of
keeping the noise out with its noise isolating ear caps. Pair the St. Germain
with casual summer boho outfits such as long loose skirts, crop tops and sassy
sandals to represent what Paris is all about.

Hear
the gentle beats of Japanese pop culture

Of
course, Asian cities can never be bumped off the list of the most influential
street cultures, and one of the best examples is Japan. The Land of the Rising
Sun comes alive in the Philips CitiScape
Shibuya, on-ear headphones that are lightweight, breathable, and inspired
from Japanese pop culture. “You can strut in style with these headphones, while
blocking out unwanted noise with its auto-fitting noise isolating cushions,” says
Flameno.

Walk around wearing
the Shibuya while expressing your own personal style, with vintage items,
leather jackets, or if you’re feeling bold, dress up like a cosplayer to seal
the deal.

With these
fashionable yet high quality headphones, Philips is at the forefront of the
headphone market as it continues to bring meaningful innovations to improve
people’s lives.

Being a shopaholic is about to satisfy yourself on what you wish to buy during great shopping sale. Just like eating what you wish to eat in order to satisfy your stomach. Shopping for me is not about to buy more things but to buy the thing that satisfies your feeling. That is a real shopaholic. A total resist of insisting what you really want to have it during the shopping spree.

This SM North EDSA “The Great Northern Sale” with a theme of “The SALE made for shopaholics returns!” targets the shopaholics for buying all things that runs in their mindset. The Great Northern Sale set a big mark down of up to 70% for some items that magnetizing the mind of shopaholics.

As what we experienced yesterday, it was a successful shopping event in SM North EDSA because of thousands of shoppers that enjoyed the big sales. Me and my girlfriend together with our blogger friends found lot of stuffs that we really like to buy. But the challenge of SM admin as they gave us 500 Gift certificate is to buy things that scale on 500Php worth.

Well, maybe with that challenge of buying more things in 500 worth of GC, I’m already loss for that. But for the mindset of being a shopaholic, I won by my heart as I bought what I want. With a 500GC I got the Shirt that I really want to buy. A single item that I bought but it raises my shopping satisfaction.

My mindset on this challenge is not about getting more items but to satisfy my shopaholic mind on getting the best Item that I can get in a 500 worth of Gift Certificate. This is a real meaning of the Great Northern Sale challenge. A challenge that customers can really satisfied on the things that they can buy.

My Girlfriend bought also single item which is her new Figlia shoes worth 499Php…

Thanks for the SM North EDSA for the shopping experience. Till next time… It’s the last day of great northern sale today. Feel free to explore and buy the things that you wish shopaholics…

The show captured that distinct South Metro savvy of effortless chic, with looks that were laid back, casual and carefree but with the elegance, flair and fashion-forward elements that will surely turn heads. Live music was provided DJ Callum David while guests were treated to entrees from newly opened food tenants – Tous Les Jours, Hollys’ Coffee, Black Canyon Coffee, Breadstory & Krispy Kreme.

Fresh from a stellar 25th anniversary year in which leading fashion brand PENSHOPPE showed every other local apparel group how a leveled up campaign should be, the label now continues its brand-repositioning process, with the goal of reinforcing its position as the top of the mind brand for years to come.

So what can we expect from PENSHOPPE this 2012? Traditional casual wear with clean nautical touches. Color blocking. Light fabrics that are easy to wear. “The latest campaign is more relaxed and approachable. Definitely feel good fashion with a casual edge,” shares Brand Director Alex Mendoza. “Trends to look forward to over the year are more vivid use of colors, clean silhouettes, acid wash jeans and our highly popular varsity jackets.”

Consequently, PENSHOPPE kicks off its Pre-Summer 2012 campaign with a modern take on cheerful wardrobe fundamentals such as jeans, shirts, jackets and other signature style as fronted by the brand’s strongest brand presenters: Gossip Girl star Ed Westwick, Asian superstar Mario Maurer and local “it” girl Solenn Heussaff.

CASUAL COOL: The New Kind of HOT

There are many reasons why a smart, sensible guy’s girlfriend would take one long look at Ed Westwick’s latest campaign for PENSHOPPE and run to the store – boyfriend in tow. After his surreal visit to Manila last year much to the amazement of fans and fashion observers alike, it seems apparent that to create a Chuck Bass out of every guy became every girl’s 2012 resolution.

To start off the new year Ed remains as PENSHOPPE’s biggest level up ammunition and for one very good reason: There is no one out there who can pull it off the way Ed can.

Simply put, there is no other Chuck Bass.

Starting the New Year with a SMILE

If Ed Westwick is considered by many as PENSHOPPE’s marketing ammo, then it is fair to say that Asian heartthrob Mario Maurer is the brand’s sales catalyst. Soon after the 23 year old was signed last August sporting the brand’s now famous varsity jacket, the item immediately went out of stock – early on proving that anything the kid touches turns into gold.

And that was just the beginning. Indeed, anything that Mario wears from his PENSHOPPE collection sells fast: jacket, jeans, shirt, shoes, you name it - even a cap. Proving his incredible cult-like following among teenagers as well as young adults, anything he models are likely to fire up fans to line up and buy across PENSHOPPE stores nationwide.

It’s HIP to be “IT”

Solenn Heussaff is not just a pretty face – she is a powerful female influencer. Prior to her entry into local showbiz, it was PENSHOPPE who discovered her years ago when she was just modeling. Since then, Solenn has fronted some of the brand’s most memorable campaigns.

With more than 440,000 plus followers on Twitter to date, the French-Filipina has sure come a long way since first being discovered by PENSHOPPE. She also possesses a sophisticated personal style that makes her the perfect female lead for what is now considered the Philippines’ fashion powerhouse.
